You just finished the design of what is basically a fancy linear stage. Does your motor controller know exactly where the carriage is? Like, really where the carriage ...

Linear position measurement is a frequent requirement for many industrial automation or process control systems, QA functions, and R&D testing. A position sensor normally does the actual position ...

They are installed not only in electrical linear motors, but also in pneumatic, hydraulic, ball-screw or power-grip belt drives and wherever high-accuracy, dynamic positioning tasks must be performed.

The fast update rate option, available for SSI and EtherCAT® protocols, fulfills high, dynamic requirements by shortening the cycle time for a measured value so the controller can read the absolute ...

This application note provides guidelines for selecting a magnet to be used in combination with the MLX90333 Triaxis 3D-Joystick Position Sensor when it is desired to apply this IC as a Linear ...

The Alliance Sensors Group is now offering a miniature, lightweight LZ SERIES linear position sensor product line utilising LVIT Technology. LVIT inductive linear position sensor Credit: Alliance ...

Calibration is necessary before the installation of an AC- operated linear position sensor to ensure accuracy. Calibration corrects any slight variances between sensors, helping to improve ...

Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. released a new linear position sensor featuring non-contacting Hall effect technology. Covering short electrical strokes to 10 mm max and available with a spring return ...

The Alliance Sensors Group has released the LV-45 series of inductive, contactless linear position sensors using LVIT Technology. The LV-45 Series LVIT linear position sensor from the Alliance Sensors ...

Farrand's transducers can offer precise measurements of angular or linear position displacements. The rotary transducers are accurate down to ± 0.5 arc-sec or better, with resolution to 26 bits. The ...

CambridgeIC has added axial linear position sensing of rotating targets to the list of sensing capabilities available from its products. “The sensors are unique in measuring the continuous position of ...

Macro Sensors’ series of high-temperature, rugged linear position sensors can be used in various military and defense applications such as fuel/oil-level monitoring, load leveling of artillery ...
